A quarter of the way


I was sewing until just after midnight last night and realised that I have sewn up a quarter of this quilt. At least I think I'm a quarter of the way there. I've sewn 14 out of 56 jigsaw pieces along with the surrounding edge pieces. It's the edge pieces that make the calculation complicated. It's looking good but I'm now worried that I haven't got enough fabric. Diamonds take up a lot more fabric than triangles and squares and I hadn't really realised that before I started. I've been online and to the fabric shop today to stock up.
